Description

Once Upon A Time in the West (Paramount, 1969). Italian (39"
X 55"). This original Italian 2 folio is considered the true
"country of origin" poster as this was an Italian film. Director
Sergio Leone cast Henry Fonda as a cold-blooded killer and ruthless
rancher in this seminal Western. Charles Bronson stars as a man
bent on revenge and Claudia Cardinale is the woman who comes
between them. During the course of Leone's career, he made many
classics, but many feel that this is his lasting masterpiece of the
cinema. Ennio Morricone composed the haunting musical score to the
original screenplay by Sergio Leone and Bernardo Bertolucci. With
art by Rodolfo Gasparri, this poster captures not only magnificent
portraits of the film's cast, but also the fantastic opening
sequence with Bronson gunning down Woody Strode and Jack Elam. The
poster has minimal color touch-up to the fold lines. Very Fine+ on
Linen.
